vishnu sahasra nama parayan

shirdi sai baba recommended vishnu sahasra nama parayan. He insisted on this. He has given this vishnu sahasra nam book to syama after taking it from another ramadasu, though ramadas wanted to have it blessed by baba. At this point sai baba told very very important points about vishnu sahasra nam parayan. He strongly recommended that the reading of this book will give peace, protect us from dangers and make the way to God realization easy. Baba's words "some time back, my heart was beating with tense, i was in danger then i hugged to this book. This has protected me. Read slowly but regularly. Read atleast one sloka or stanza from this book". These are very meaningful and helpful advice to all of us. We started reading thus, as said by baba. We found many advantages and the summed up blessing helped me to achieve my temporary goal. I used to count reading sahasra nama parayan 108 times as one avarthana, (one round). If you go on doing thus avarthanas after 3 avarthanas you feel devine help to help you to acheive your strong desire. But though you read three times a day, it takes one month for one avarthana. We have to remember the greatness and importance of this sahasra namavali from shirdi sai baba.vishnu sahasra nama stotram, vishnu sahasra namam, vishnu sahasranama

shirdi sai baba aaratis

shirdi sai baba telugu aaratis

Aarati or arti became very important part of shirdi sai baba worship. Daily four times this aarathi is sung. The names of these aaratis are:Kakad Aarati, Madhyana Aarati, Dhoop Aarati, Shej Aarati.. There is an interesting aspect in this shirdi aarathis. Shirdi sai baba is a fakir , respecting muslim relegion, as well as Hindu. Muslims pray namaz 5 times a day, without fail at pre determined times , turning to mecca side. This is a great and wonderful rule, that muslim relegion laid to keep all the followers relegious and pious. Hindus lack this, as they can pray when and where they like. But , to fill this gap, shirdi sai baba aartis are like namaz, we sing these aartis 4 times a day. Each aarti has different meaning , concept and tune. These aarti is normally sung in marathi language, since the times of shirdi sai. So, we the devotees from other languages could not know the full meaning . If you are telugu devotee, there are translated , aaratis sung by SP Balasubrahmanyam. These aartis are really wonderful, because of the talent of sp balasubramanyam, these were sung in excellent way, and you will be understanding the full meaning too. Better try to listen these. You can listen on line these from shiridi sai baba aaratis

The trio of shirdi , parthi and prema

The trio of shirdi , parthi and prema
Shirdi sai baba ended his avatar and before that event he told nearby people that he would take birth in andhra pradesh after eight years. But the close by people could not understand the statement properly but understood , that he advents as a eight year boy in andhrapradesh.
As promissed shirdi sai baba took birth in ananthapur district as satya sai baba just after eitht years from the end of shirdi sai avatar. Not only that, satya sai baba even in his childhood, in a remotest place where none knows about shirdi sai, spoke about shirdi sai baba and has shown proof that he is shirdi sai avatar only. The great saints , avatars never tell a lie. So, we can take this granted and have faith in this. Many people, many shirdi sai devotees do not agree for this, but please do not under estimate satya sai, though you do not know the full details or truth. The great sign for our spiritual growth is to respect all saints, avatars and never to belittle anyone with doubt or suspecion. God never likes it.
The third avatar by the sai baba would be in karnataka, as prema sai or prem sai . It would be still after 21 years or so from now. Then this trio completes the devine purpose and objective of these avatars.

sai satcharitra parayan

sai satcharitra is a sacred book in which the stories, leelas of shirdi sai was described in details and wonderfully.This was compiled by hemadpanth, (or hemad pant) with the blessings of shirdi sai baba. Thats why every line in this is so meaningful, and powerful. You can read it any number of times and you never get tired or bored.
All the desciples , devotees of shirdi sai baba recite or parayan this sacred book sai satcharita daily or weekly. There are two important types of parayan of this sai satcharitra. One is daily parayan which means, daily you will read one chapter from the book. There are about 51 chapters in this satcharitra and it takes about 50 days or so to complete. The second method, more powerful one is weekly parayan. You will complete reading this satacharita in a week, as prescribed in the book. Each day it takes about one hour to complete this weekly parayan. If you do this weekly parayan, you will get really some power and you can achieve your immidate goal, this has been proved to me too.
After parayan, we make prasad or offering to baba and donate some money , may be two rupuees or more to shirdi samsthan or your local baba temple. Feed a cow with bananas.
